Things I can't wait to do!



Recommended Posts

I am 4 weeks from surgery and I am constantly thinking of things I want to do that I haven't been able to because of my weight. I'm sure this has been posted before, but for us newbies, lets keep track of the things we want to be able to do after we have lost our weight....

I want to...

Buy underwear & bras at Victorias Secret instead of Lane Bryant

I want to be able to buy my work scrubs and not pay the additional $3.00 per item for a larger size.

I also want to be able to fit my butt in an airline seat and not worry about if I even will fit.

And last but def not least, I can't wait to feel better!

My son is getting married next year in the fall and I can't wait to go shopping for my dress. I will be able to pick what I want to wear instead of taking a dress only because it is all that available in the plus size department.

I can't wait to feel confident in a swimming suit. Totally feeling the sexy panty thing too. Shopping in the regular section will be fabulous. I love the one about not having to pay the extra $ for plus size scrubs!!!! So many things we have been missing out on!

I can't wait until I am able to wear the t-shirts they give away at Kansas City Royals baseball games.

I can't wait to not feel sticky and sweaty the moment there is any humidity in the air, even if the temp is 70 degrees.

I can't wait to have the whole world selection of clothes - to find my style instead of putting up with what is least offensive in the big girl's section of the store.

To start - I would like to be able to bend over and easily tie my own shoes, slide easily into booths and tables with attached benches, and not fear airplane seats and be able to go on rides :) I would like to wear short sleeves and shorts again - I am too embarrased to nowadays. even around my own family.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
